I painted your room at midnight
So I know yesterday was over
I put all your books on the top shelf
Even the one with the four-leaf clover
Man I'm getting older
I took all your pictures off the wall
And wrapped 'em in a newspaper blanket
And i havent slept in what seems like a century
And now i can barely breathe
Just like the crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer sky
when you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you would slip away
I guess I was just a little too late
Pre-verse:
Your words still serenade me
Your lullabies wont let me sleep
I never heard such a haunting melody
Oh it's it's killing me
You know I can barely breathe
